The first few acts for December's Portishead-helmed Nightmare Before Christmas event, held at Minehead's Butlins, have been confirmed.

Performing at the annual All Tomorrow's Parties event will be Sparklehorse, Oneida (pictured), Aphex Twin, Black Mountain, Seasick Steve and Julian Cope. Also on the bill are Team Brick, Crippled Black Phoenix and Fuzz Against Junk, from Geoff Barrow's own Invada label.

Portishead will play too, obviously.
